Erroneous APP Notifications

I've been getting hourly APP (Android) notifications since 1 AM EDT that my boarding pass is now available for my flight to New Orleans, THere's no mention of a flight number. Also got a one time message at the beginning of this hourly repetition with a notification of Taxi pick ups and a flight number. The flight isn't scheduled until May.

Did you purchase or pull up his reservation while logged in as you? If so it'll add his reservation on the app to your list of bookings so you can manage/view it.

When you login as him on same device it stores his bookings. Just like it stores them when only one person use the app. What I'm not sure of is does it only do that if he's the last one to login in, or does it regardless of who logged in last.

This! First time it happened to me I didn't know what was going on but figured out what the app was doing quickly.

Im having this happen too, but I believe with cancelled tickets. I cancelled an LAX-PVG flight and it added notifications to my feed tab that my boarding pass was now ready the day before the (cancelled) flight departed.

Yep, I've seen "ghost notifications" for flights I've canceled.

And yes, I often do bookings for my husband so I guess that's why I end up seeing this stuff.
